  • Use of sequence numbers while inserting into tables

    Hi,
    Consider i have a stored procedure where i insert records into 30 to 40 tables.
    for example i have a table A and a sequence SEQ_A for that table.
    Is there any difference in performance in the following two ways of
    insertion,
    1. select SEQ_A.NEXTVAL into variable_a FROM DUAL;
    INSERT INTO A VALUES(variable_a);
    2.INSERT INTO A VALUES (SEQ_A.NEXTVAL).
    I have 30 to 40 insert statements like that in method 1.
    if i replace it by method 2. will there be any improvement in performance?
    Thanks & Regards
    Sundar

    This could be interesting. I agree that triggers should be used for data integrity, though even better is to only allow write access to tables via stored procedures.
    Anyway while you are waiting for the test case that shows triggers are faster, which could take some time, it is quick and easy to come up with a test case that shows the opposite.
    SQL> create table t (id number, dummy varchar2(1));
    Table created.
    real: 40
    SQL> insert into t select s.nextval, 'a' from all_objects;
    29625 rows created.
    real: 5038
    SQL> rollback;
    Rollback complete.
    real: 40
    SQL> create trigger tt before insert on t
      2  for each row
      3  begin
      4     select s.nextval into :new.id from dual;
      5  end;
      6  /
    Trigger created.
    real: 291
    SQL> insert into t select null, 'a' from all_objects;
    29626 rows created.
    real: 13350
    SQL> rollback;
    Rollback complete.
    real: 1082

  • Data not getting inserted into table Hxt_Add_Assign_Info_F

    Hi,
    Can any one tell me as to when data is inserted into the table Hxt_Add_Assign_Info_F.
    Lately this table has not been getting updated.
    Thanks
    Zicky

    Hi Sharath,
    Thanks alot for the info, it seems that data had not been entered for certain employees in that form and hence the problem.
    Even then, I guess it will be a day or 2 before they will be able to see their in/out timings.

  • How to check if data is being inserted into table?

    Oracle 10.2.0.1.0
    I have a long running transaction, an insert based on select running from SQLPLUS. It is running for more than 2 hours as the volume of data is extremely high ( more than 2 million records ).
    How do I check:
    1) The volume of data that is already inserted?.
    This is to make sure the session is not "hung", but is actually inserting records into the table.
    Thanks

    I have a long running transaction, an insert based on select running from SQLPLUS. It is running for more than 2 hours as the volume of data is extremely high ( more than 2 million records ).
    How do I check:
    1) The volume of data that is already inserted?.If there is a commit statement then you can directly query the table for number of rows inserted.
    This is to make sure the session is not "hung", but is actually inserting records into the table.To confirm if it is running or not you can query dba view like dba_extents for that objects you can look into bytes or blocks which should increase if you query is running.
    Hope this helps

  • How to use header information in line records while inserting into table?

    Hi,
    Requirement: Data in flat file needs to be loaded into Oracle Tables.
    File has header information (basically file information, some account info) and Line information ( Actual data need to be loaded to oracle tables).
    File has position based data, first 2 char for Header is 00 and line is 50
    Now, header has some extra info which needs to be loaded along with details lines ( This has to be done using sql loader control file).
    What should be the control file logic to capture header information in details lines?
    Please suggest.
    I am calling this control file from Unix, so I can change the control file definition dynamically by retrieving the first line of the data file and modify the control file before executing the sql loader command. Is there any option to achieve this using SQL LOADER commands?
    Thanks,
    Venkat.

    Pl post details of OS and database versions.
    Use the WHEN clause to load header and detail lines into separate tables, then write PL/SQL code to perform needed post-processing.
    See the examples in section titled "Distinguishing Different Input Record Formats" here http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e22490/ldr_control_file.htm

  • File to RFC problem- data is not inserting into ztable in R3 system

    Hi
    i have done File to RFC scenario which picks data from flat file and inserts into ztable via RFC in R3. but while testing my scenario everything is successful in XI monitoring (Successful flag in MONI and RWB) and in auditlog message status is DLVD.
    it seems to be everything successful in XI and RFC call also successful in R3 system.
    but for some reason data is not inserting into table (RFC is used to insert data into ztable)
    Is there any way to debug RFC call excecution in XI..?
    RFC code is like this:
    insert ZMM_AUTO_GR from INPUT_TABLE.
    commit work.
    END FUNCTION.
    please advice what could be the reason not inserting into table.
    Help would be appreciated.

  • Problem while inserting into a table which has ManyToOne relation

    Problem while inserting into a table *(Files)* which has ManyToOne relation with another table *(Folder)* involving a attribute both in primary key as well as in foreign key in JPA 1.0.
    Relevent Code
    Entities:
    public class Files implements Serializable {
    @EmbeddedId
    protected FilesPK filesPK;
    private String filename;
    @JoinColumns({
    @JoinColumn(name = "folder_id", referencedColumnName = "folder_id"),
    @JoinColumn(name = "uid", referencedColumnName = "uid", insertable = false, updatable = false)})
    @ManyToOne(optional = false)
    private Folders folders;
    public class FilesPK implements Serializable {
    private int fileId;
    private int uid;
    public class Folders implements Serializable {
    @EmbeddedId
    protected FoldersPK foldersPK;
    private String folderName;
    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "folders")
    private Collection<Files> filesCollection;
    @JoinColumn(name = "uid", referencedColumnName = "uid", insertable = false, updatable = false)
    @ManyToOne(optional = false)
    private Users users;
    public class FoldersPK implements Serializable {
    private int folderId;
    private int uid;
    public class Users implements Serializable {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Integer uid;
    private String username;
    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "users")
    private Collection<Folders> foldersCollection;
    I left out @Basic & @Column annotations for sake of less code.
    EJB method
    public void insertFile(String fileName, int folderID, int uid){
    FilesPK pk = new FilesPK();
    pk.setUid(uid);
    Files file = new Files();
    file.setFilename(fileName);
    file.setFilesPK(pk);
    FoldersPK folderPk = new FoldersPK(folderID, uid);
         // My understanding that it should automatically handle folderId in files table,
    // but it is not…
    file.setFolders(em.find(Folders.class, folderPk));
    em.persist(file);
    It is giving error:
    Internal Exception: java.sql.SQLException: Field 'folderid' doesn't have a default value_
    Error Code: 1364
    Call: INSERT INTO files (filename, uid, fileid) VALUES (?, ?, ?)_
    _       bind => [hello.txt, 1, 0]_
    It is not even considering folderId while inserting into db.
    However it works fine when I add folderId variable in Files entity and changed insertFile like this:
    public void insertFile(String fileName, int folderID, int uid){
    FilesPK pk = new FilesPK();
    pk.setUid(uid);
    Files file = new Files();
    file.setFilename(fileName);
    file.setFilesPK(pk);
    file.setFolderId(folderId) // added line
    FoldersPK folderPk = new FoldersPK(folderID, uid);
    file.setFolders(em.find(Folders.class, folderPk));
    em.persist(file);
    My question is that is this behavior expected or it is a bug.
    Is it required to add "column_name" variable separately even when an entity has reference to ManyToOne mapping foreign Entity ?
    I used Mysql 5.1 for database, then generate entities using toplink, JPA 1.0, glassfish v2.1.
    I've also tested this using eclipselink and got same error.
    Please provide some pointers.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    What version of EclipseLink did you try? This looks like bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=280436 that was fixed in EclipseLink 2.0, so please try a later version.
    You can also try working around the problem by making both fields writable through the reference mapping.

  • Help needed badly Insert text data from xml files into tables

    Hi all, I have asked to do insertion of text from a xml file into tables upon receiving using pro*c. i've done quite an amount of research on xml parser in c but there wasn't much information for mi to use for implementation...
    Guys don't mind helping me to clarify few doubts of mine...
    1. Where can i get the oracle xml parser libs? Is it included when i installed oracle 8i?
    2. Is there any tutorials or help files for xml parser libs where i can read up?
    I need the xml parser to recognise the tags, followed by recognising the text after the tags.
    eg. xml format
    <studentID> 0012 </studentID>
    <student> john </student>
    <studentID> 0013 </studentID>
    <student> mary </student>
    text willl be inserted into tables like this:
    studentID | student
    0012 | john
    0013 | mary
    by the way i'm using oracle 8i on HP-UX. Thanks in advance.

    I can answer one of of your questions at least
    1. Where can i get the oracle xml parser libs? Is it included when i installed oracle 8i?You need the XML XDK. You can use http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/xml/xdkhome.html as your starting point. I believe the 9i version works for 8i.
    I have no pro*c experience so I can't offer any other suggestions regarding how to do this in pro*c.

    I'm not going to try to read all your code, but I will take your hint about the "onChange".
    What I would suggest is that you set a boolean variable, such as "changed", set to false at the beginning (perhaps in the "onLoad" event). Your "onChange" event can simply change the "changed" variable to true. Then, when the user leaves the page, or clicks Submit or whatever, test that variable to see if any changes were made, then take the appropriate action.

  • Reg: read excel column and insert into table.

    hi Friends,
          i wanted to read the data from Excel and insert into in my oracle tables.
          can you provide the link or example script.
        how to read the column value from excel and insert into table.
      please help.

    < unnecessary reference to personal blog removed by moderator >
    Here are the steps:
    1) First create a directory and grant read , write , execute to the user from where you want to access the flat files and load it.
    2) Write a generic function to load PIPE delimited flat files:
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION TABLE_LOAD ( p_table in varchar2,
    p_dir in varchar2 DEFAULT ‘YOUR_DIRECTORY_NAME’,
    P_FILENAME in varchar2,
    p_ignore_headerlines IN INTEGER DEFAULT 1,
    p_delimiter in varchar2 default ‘|’,
    p_optional_enclosed in varchar2 default ‘”‘ )
    return number
    is
    – FUNCTION TABLE_LOAD
    – PURPOSE: Load the flat files i.e. only text files to Oracle
    – tables.
    – This is a generic function which can be used for
    – importing any text flat files to oracle database.
    – PARAMETERS:
    – P_TABLE
    – Pass name of the table for which import has to be done.
    – P_DIR
    – Name of the directory where the file is been placed.
    – Note: The grant has to be given for the user to the directory
    – before executing the function
    – P_FILENAME
    – The name of the flat file(a text file)
    – P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES
    – By default we are passing 1 to skip the first line of the file
    – which are headers on the Flat files.
    – P_DELIMITER
    – Dafault “|” pipe is been passed.
    – P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED
    – Optionally enclosed by ‘ ” ‘ are been ignored.

    commit;
    RETURN L_ROWCOUNT;
    end TABLE_LOAD;
    Note: when you run the function then it will also modify the source flat file with timestamp , so that we can have the track like which file was loaded .
    3) Check if the user is having UTL_FILE privileges or not :
    SQL> SELECT OWNER,
    OBJECT_TYPE
    FROM ALL_OBJECTS
    WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ‘UTL_FILE’
    AND OWNER =<>;
    If the user is not having the privileges then grant “UTL_FILE” to user from SYS user:
    SQL> GRANT EXECUTE ON UTL_FILE TO <>;
    4) In the function I have used two tables like:
    import_hist table and badlog table to track the history of the load and another to check the bad log if it occurs while doing the load .
    Under the same user create an error log table to log the error out records while doing the import:
    SQL> CREATE TABLE badlog
    errm VARCHAR2(4000),
    data VARCHAR2(4000) ,
    error_date TIMESTAMP
    Under the same user create Load history table to log the details of the file and tables that are imported with a track of records loaded:
    SQL> create table IMPORT_HIST
    FILENAME varchar2(200),
    TABLE_NAME varchar2(200),
    NUM_OF_REC number,
    IMPORT_DATE DATE
    5) Finally run the PLSQL block and check if it is loading properly or not if not then check the badlog:
    Execute the PLSQL block to import the data from the USER:
    SQL> declare
    P_TABLE varchar2(200):=<>;
    P_DIR varchar2(200):=<>;
    P_FILENAME VARCHAR2(200):=<>;
    v_Return NUMBER;
    BEGIN
    v_Return := TABLE_LOAD(
    P_TABLE => P_TABLE,
    P_DIR => P_DIR,
    P_FILENAME => P_FILENAME,
    P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES => P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES,
    P_DELIMITER => P_DELIMITER,
    P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED => P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(‘v_Return = ‘ || v_Return);
    end;
    6) Once the PLSQL block is been executed then check for any error log table and also the target table if the records are been successfully imported or not.

  • Create Table... as Select * from.....  Vs Insert into table.....Select * from .....

    Hi All,
    I am having one query as below:
    There is a master table named: MSTR_TABLE  (It's having partitions on a month column [YYYYMM] )
    I am having 4 temp Tables As: Temp1, Temp2, temp3, Temp4 (These tables are not having any index, no partitions)
    Scenario 1: I am trying to insert data into MSTR_TABLE from Temp1, Temp2, temp3, Temp4 tables (Select data from temp tables by Outer Join), which i taking lot's of time. Coming to no of records in temp tables are Temp1: 5 Million Records,
                           Temp2: 3 Million Records,
                           Temp3: 0.5 Million records,
                           Temp4: 5000 Records
    Scenario 2: Creating a new Table as TEMP_MASTER using Temp1, Temp2, temp3, Temp4 tables. This is executing much faster and the table is getting created in less than 10 mins.
    Scenario 3: Now i am inserting data from TEMP_MASTER to MSTR_TABLE. This is is also getting executed in less than 5 mins.
    I tried following methods:
    1) Creating a table with partitions and tried Inserting Data - No Luck
    2) Disabled Logging on table and tried Inserting data - No Luck
    3) used /*+ append nologging*/ and tried inserting data - No Luck
    4) Altered Next Extent to 8MB and tried - No Luck
    Please let me know, why while inserting into main table (Scenario 1) from query is not working and running long time (More than 2 hrs).
    Thanks in Advance,
    Venu Gopal K

    Hi Sudhakar,
    Thanks for your reply. Please find the detailed description of situation as below:

                            Inserting Data for every month
    I added 18 new columns to MSTR_TABLE and the requirement is to populate data for 18 columns. These 18 columns data i am fetching from multiple tables and storing in temp tables as below, and creating a new table by joining PRNT_TABLE, TEMP1,TEMP2,TEMP3,TEMP4 and fetching 120+18 columns data and storing in MSTR_TABLE.

  • System getting hanged whilst using Insert into table select * from table

    I have a peculiar problem.
    I am using the below statements:
    Query 1:
    insert into table ppms.erin_out@ppms_dblink select * from erin_out;
    Query 2:
    insert into table ppms.erin_out@ppms_dblink values(23,'dffgg',12',dfdfdgg,dfdfdg);
    I am in 'interfaces' schema (testing server) and executing above statements. We have testing server and development server, both are identical, i.e one is clone of the other.
    ppms_dblink is created in interfaces schema. ppms_dblink points to different database server which has two schemas 'clarity' and 'ppms'. ppms_dblink is create through authentication details of clarity schema.
    erin_out table is created on ppms schema on the same dababase server pointed by ppms_dblink.
    Question is :
    TOAD hangs while running query 1.
    Query 2 is working perfectly.
    As I have pl/sql script which is using query 1. I want to know why query 1 is creating problem.
    If I use query 2 in my pl/sql query then it may create performance issue as i have to use cursor then.
    On clarity schema, I have insert, update, select, modify rights on ppms.erin_out.
    I have tried same queries from another database server.
    That is I tried queries from 'interfaces' schema of development server ( clone of the testing server ). Its working perfectly.

    Dhanchik:
    The table from which I select rows, to insert into table on dblink, is having only one record. It may contatin maximum 100 rows at a time because I am scheduling the procedure through daemon process. Anyway transaction is not more than 100 records. I am trying with just 1 record for testing.
    So 1) Problem is not about the cost, TOAD is getting hanged ( to insert 1 record, cost does not mean much)
    2) there is no large amount of data, so no question of deteriorated performance
    Aron Tunzi:
    I think that should not be problem, because I am able to insert a record through query 2.
    Warren Tolentino :
    I am testing with 1 record only. Its not performance issue.
